Casa Mariandre B Apartment Nearby Orrento Center

Mr. Mike - USA - 11 July 2011 Approaching the complex you would be forgiven for being a little worried about the location but on arrival those reservations will vanish. The fact that the residence is a short walk (5 - 10 mins from Piazza Tasso) turns out to be a godsend and not a problem. The tranquility of the location is well recieved compared to the hussle and bustle of the Piazza Tasso area (we stayed in Palazzo Di Guardati on our wedding night and although a lovely hotel it was quite noisy early in the morning due to the sheer amount of tourists in Piazza Tasso). The apartment themselves are set within a lemon grove which is a lovely setting. There is a pool with ample sun loungers, a gorgeous solid wooden table with bench seating either side that would have definitely been our wedding reception venue choice had we not already organised it prior to the holiday. There are hammocks, swings, rooftop solarium and another outside eating area also. Inside the villas (we had Giordana and Ticky) you get everything that you need. They are clean and well set out with TV, decent showers, kitchenette areas etc. Nothing more to say really. What makes the stay such a pleasure (besides what is mentioned above) is the staff and especially Gino. He went out of his way to help make our stay a memorable one and he neednt have done as within 15mins of arriving, myself and my newly appointed wife had already decided that we were going to return next year. We loved it and as it says in the title... Mr. Alan & Friends - USA - 15 June 2011 Just back from a week in complex and it was super. We were there for a family wedding (14 of us in total) and we took 3 of the apartments. The place was so perfect for us, we were so relaxed and felt right at home. It is brilliant for children who can run around and be free, which they couldnt do in a hotel. The owners were so helpful and friendly and made us feel so welcome, they did everything they could to accommodate us. The gardens and pool are so pretty, we basically had it to ourselves. The apartment is about a 10 min (max) walk to the town, but you feel like you are in the countryside, it couldnt be better. I would highly recommend this as a place to stay for anyone who appreciates authentic Italian living with all the tourist facilities close by. It was a wonderful retreat and we would definitely go back. Like the previous review said, its like a hidden gem, but should be shared, cos its so great!
